"Infor LN is a completely integrated product that provides good stability."
"It has strong sales, purchase, warehousing, and logistics order management."
"Infor LN has basically the same structure as CloudSuite Industrial, but LN has more advanced planning tools for manufacturing."
"The initial setup is easy."
"I would say that it is typically used by large-scale manufacturing industries, especially in discrete manufacturing, and it has proven to work brilliantly."
"The best feature of this solution is it comes as a complete bundle. The solution has effective project, document, and application management. Additionally, the collaboration is fantastic, it is well integrated, and can be customized."
"The project module is the best that I've ever seen, and more than that, it's the company's flexibility to change. It means that in our company, Infor LN has the capability to support many kinds of industries."
"It is a very powerful, highly customizable tool."
"At present, it seems very stable because it is in the cloud."
"It is the most stable solution provided by SAP and can be used on all levels."
"The most useful features of SAP S4HANA are the consolidation reports. The BI is very strong and the manufacturing and finance sections we like a lot."
"I have found SAP S4HANA to be scalable."
"The Fiori design is a valuable feature."
"We're able to get all our processes flowing together. We're able to make all of our business processes talk to each other."
"I have found the user interface very modern and it has simplified many user jobs, such as the embedded logistics. They have introduced central finance which has been a benefit."
"The training for Infor LN is not straightforward, so a non-specialist will need training before using it."
"The user interface is not very intuitive for newer users."
"Infor LN has customer support in India, but service could be improved. So, basically, they prioritize agreements, and the number of tickets closed within a certain timeframe, not necessarily the quality or resolution of the tickets themselves. They just open and close them, sometimes without even understanding the issue. That's the biggest problem."
"Only people who undergo training from the companies can learn about Infor products."
"When it comes to planning, it's more challenging to consider the entire structure, such as having a specific SKU and wanting to look at the planning for the whole structure. You must delve into individual item details to plan for it with order planning. Therefore, improvements will allow more comprehensive planning for each SKU."
"The finance model within this solution does not have very strong reporting functionality, which I would like to see improved."
"The interface can be difficult sometimes. I need to apply a bar code system, such as business intelligence and user interface tools. The user has to be a technician sometimes to use it."
"The tool is expensive. It needs to refine its planning details."
"The solution could have a better user experience. However, they are working a lot on the user experience and they have come up with various applications, such as mobile applications. This was lacking over the last two years."
"The scalability could be better."
"We are always looking for a better user experience. We would like to see more consolidation in SAP S4HANA because of all the financial compliance and regulatory changes."
"The solution is complex technically because both an old and a new path exist."
"There should be an easier way to migrate customers from all versions to SAP S/4HANA."
"This solution works with the configuration, if the prerequisites are very clear and can be configured it works perfectly. If you need to simulate something, as a predictive tool this kind of simulation is not very accurate and it has limitations. This is something that could improve."
"Maybe its user interface and reporting can be improved across the board, but it is manageable."
"There are some problems with the support provided for the solution, so it is not quite easy. It takes some time for them to offer us support."
